The Killers are set to headline next year's 20th anniversary instalment of T In The Park.

Turning 20 with nary a wrinkle on its brow, T In The Park remains Scotland's biggest outdoor festival. Each year, Balado swells to the size of a city as thousands upon thousands of fans descend upon the site for a weekend of music.

Returning with a bumper instalment, T In The Park yesterday (December 4th) confirmed appearances from Mumford & Sons and Rihanna. Now organisers have revealed that Las Vegas titans The Killers are set to drop by Balado for a headline performance.

Recently releasing another epic album in the form of 'Battle Born' the band are set to play an enormous show at Wembley next year. Following this, The Killers will head to T In The Park for what will no doubt be a spectacular headline show.

Festival Director Geoff Ellis said: “The Killers topped our fan poll as the artist our audience most wanted to see in 2013, and we are absolutely thrilled to announce them as our third headliners for T in the Park’s 20th edition. They’re one of the biggest bands in the world, and when we last brought them to Scotland, demand was so high we could have sold out the show four times over. With the exception of their Wembley Stadium gig, this is their only announced UK gig of 2013, and we’re really excited to announce this spread of acts as a starter for 20 for our 20th year celebrations.”

Tickets for next year's T In The Park go on sale this Friday (December 7th) at 9am.
